Starwood Vacation Ownership has announced plans to develop a new 26 acre oceanfront Westin timeshare resort on Kaanapali beach on Maui. The resort, Westin Nanea Ocean Villas is scheduled to open in 2017 and will be built on a vacant lot between Honua Kai Resort & Spa and the Westin Kaanapali Ocean Resort Villas.

The plans call for 390 luxury villas which will feature the world-renowned Westin Heavenly Bed and the Heavenly Bath enhanced with the brand’s Heavenly Shower, Heavenly Robe and White Tea Aloe bath amenities.

Resort amenities will include a 10,000 square foot lagoon-style swimming pool with an upper pool, children’s beach pool and play area, two plunge pools, three oceanfront cabanas and a WestinWORKOUT studio.

A full-service restaurant will offer breathtaking ocean views and an enticing menu of Hawaiian and international cuisine. The pool bar will provide a relaxing setting to enjoy oceanfront views, cocktails and lighter fare.

Guests will enjoy cultural programming celebrating local history, arts and crafts, music and dance, as well as access to resort amenities at The Westin Ka’anapali Ocean Resort Villas located next door, including Spa Helani, a Heavenly Spa by Westin.

There will also be in-room and high-speed Internet access.

Starwood currently has three Hawaii timeshares resorts, Westin Kaanapali Ocean Resort Villas, Westin Kaanapali Ocean Resort Villas North on Maui and the Westin Princeville Ocean Resort Villas on Kauai.

The company recently announced the spinoff of its Starwood timeshares business as a separate entity and the plans to convert the Sheraton Kauai into a timeshare, thus bringing the number of Hawaii timeshares to four. With the addition of the new Westin timeshare being built on Maui, the total number of Starwood Vacation Ownership resorts in Hawaii will be five.
